Year 2022 — a record-breaking year for HES Gdynia

new business in the area and contribute to increased volumes of traffic processed through its port.

Dry and liquid bulk cargoes and energyand recycling-related businesses will remain the port’s main focus in the future as well.

Over seven million tonnes were handled at HES Gdynia Bulk Terminal throughout the last year, which made the year 2022 a record-breaking for the terminal. “It was an extremely challenging year; therefore, we feel profoundly proud of the result,” said the terminal.

Poland weaned itself off Russian energy supplies in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It sought alternative products from Colombia, Australia, South

Africa and Indonesia. These re-routed logistics resulted in unprecedentedly maximum capacity tonnage in HES Gdynia Bulk Terminal, and meant that the year was an extraordinary one.

This unprecedented demand required the smoothest operational and schedule efficiency from the berth side in accommodating a tight line-up of vessels. Also, all inland operations had to be highly efficient to secure enough energy for households for this winter.

At the end of the year 2022, the terminal feels accomplished and very proud. Along with strongly supporting the total thermal coal import, the terminal also fulfilled commitments to its long term grain and feedstuff partners that it had made at the beginning of the last year, at the same time upholding the leading agriculture commodity share in Polish ports tonnage throughput.
